SSD cache commands

  • Add drives to SSD cache
    The set ssdCache command increases the capacity of an existing SSD cache by adding more solid state disks (SSDs).
  • Change SSD cache application type
    The set ssdCache command changes the application type associated with the SSD cache. The application type can be web server, database, or multimedia. Changing the application type changes the block size, sub-block size, populate on read threshold, and populate on write threshold for the volumes underlying the SSD cache.
  • Create SSD cache
    The create ssdCache command creates a read cache for a storage array using Solid State Disks (SSDs).
  • Delete SSD cache
    The delete ssdCache command deletes the SSD cache. All data in the SSD cache is purged.
  • Remove drives from SSD cache
    The set ssdCache command decreases the capacity of the SSD cache by removing Solid State Disks (SSDs).
  • Rename SSD cache
    The set ssdCache command changes the name of the SSD cache.
  • Resume SSD cache
    The resume ssdCache command restarts the caching for all of the volumes using the SSD cache that was temporarily stopped with the suspend ssdCache command.
  • Set SSD cache for a volume
    The set volume ssdCacheEnabled command turns on or off caching using the SSD cache feature for a specific volume.
  • Show SSD cache
    The show ssdCache command displays information about the SSD cache.
  • Show SSD cache statistics
    The show ssdCache command displays data about the SSD cache usage.
  • Start SSD cache locate
    The start ssdCache locate command identifies the Solid State Disks (SSDs) that are logically grouped together to form the SSD cache by blinking the indicator lights on the SSDs.
  • Start SSD cache performance modeling
    The start ssdCache performanceModeling command starts performance modeling for the SSD cache.
  • Stop SSD cache locate
    The stop ssdCache locate command turns off the indicator lights on the Solid State Disks (SSDs) that were turned on by the start ssdCache locate command.
  • Stop SSD cache performance modeling
    The stop ssdCache performanceModeling command stops the performance modeling operation and displays the performance modeling data for the SSD cache.
  • Suspend SSD cache
    The suspend ssdCache command temporarily stops caching for all of the volumes that are using the SSD cache.
